✨Hi Galaxy, it's Anna✨

I got to sub Yin last night (it's literally been years since I've taught Yin), and class wrapped a little late, then I stayed and chatted with everyone's favorite person, Bob (who hopefully will teach a class at the studio sometime soon, hint hint finish your homework if you're reading this Bob 😘), and it was like 8:45pm by the time everyone had left the studio.

It was so quiet, deliciously dark, and glowy inside. It made me grateful for these few days when the world slows down and there are sweet spaces to pause, reflect, and just be. I sat in the studio and looked at all the star lights glowing blue and the disco ball twinkling and felt so grateful for you and this space. Whatever you celebrate, I hope you can have a few moments like this over the next few days. Here's a poem by May Sarton that talks about the exact feeling I had last night.

Merry Christmas, Galaxy 🌲

"When everyone had gone
I sat in the library
With the small silent tree,
She and I alone.
How softly she shone!

And for the first time then
For the first time this year,
I felt reborn again,
I knew love’s presence near.

Love distant, love detached
And strangely without weight,
Was with me in the night
When everyone had gone
And the garland of pure light
Stayed on, stayed on."

✨️Welcome Hannah!✨️⁠

You have probably seen Hannah practicing alongside you in the studio, or greeting you with the warmest smile from behind the front desk, but now it is with the deepest pleasure that we welcome Hannah onto our teaching team!!! 💗⁠

Hannah recently graduated from our 200hr teacher training program and has stepped fearlessly into teaching public classes. She is gentle, incredibly sweet, and has a deep love for yoga that she is eager to share with the world! You can practice with Hannah every Monday for the 4:30p Galaxy Flow. 🌌

Dropping our class schedule for the holidays here for you.🧚🏼‍♂️⁠

Classes tend to be busier on holidays, so try to book ahead of time if you plan on practicing. On the flip side, if you are scheduled into class and can't make it anymore, please cancel out of class so someone else has the opportunity to come. 💜⁠

We hope you can enjoy some time on your mat and time with those you love. ✨️

✨️THIS WEEKEND IN THE GALAXY✨️⁠

We are continuing to explore the meaning of prayer and gratitude. In Anna's dispatch this month, she quoted others saying that the practice of yoga is like praying with our entire being- body, mind, spirit, heart, and breathing. Reading this was powerful. ⁠

Every time we step into practice, it can be a prayer, or offering of sorts. And every time we practice in our sweet Galaxy, we are filling the space with the language of our hearts. 💫⁠

(If you haven't read the Dispatch, head to your inbox!)⁠

We hope you share your magic with the Galaxy this weekend! Be well, pals!

Celebrate the turn of the year with Kelsey on New Years Eve from 10:00-11:30a with a 108 Sun Salutation practice! 🌞🎊⁠

Practicing 108 Sun Salutations is a yogic tradition, and is done as we transition into a new season of life to celebrate and honor change. The repetitive nature of this practice may lead you into a meditative and contemplative state. Whether you complete a quarter, half, or all 108 sun salutations, you will have the opportunity to explore your edge.⁠

This class is open to anyone who'd like to end the year with an empowering, dynamic, and (somewhat) challenging practice. Be sure to bring plenty of water, wear comfortable clothes, and be prepared to breathe, sweat, and most importantly- have a good time!⁠

Participants will receive a special '108' sticker after the event to help commemorate your achievement. ⁠

Invite your pals. 💜 Reserve your spot by visiting the link in our bio.

Join Anna on Friday, December 19th to celebrate the Winter Solstice, the darkest day of the year. 🌑🕯️ ⁠

You'll move through a grounding vinyasa practice with dark wave music under low light to mimic the current cycle of nature. ❄️ As you settle into introspection, you'll have the opportunity to set your intentions for the lighter days ahead. 🌞⁠

You can use your membership or class pack to sign up for this powerful experience, or drop-in for $40. Reserve your spot by visiting the link in our bio!

Every time you meet for Group Yoga Therapy + Art Therapy with Mica, depending on the goals of each person, the session will change what the focus is. 🧡⁠

This past session, the overwhelming goal was to learn breathwork that could support them when they experience symptoms of anxiety and to learn some other tools to add to their belt. Here are just a few of the takeaways: ⁠
✨️Lengthened Exhales | Letting the exhale be longer than your inhale help turn on the parasympathetic nervous system and bring balance to the central nervous system.⁠
✨️Emotional Release Tapping | We practiced ERT as a method to help ground and as a tool to help when you notice your self starting to experience anxiety.⁠
✨️Journaling | It can be journaling, it can be a scale, it can be colors, smiley/frowny faces, or any other measurement that can be used to track your progress this coming month⁠

The next session is on Sunday, December 28th from 11:00a-1:00p. This can be a nice way to reset and gain some tools as you enter into the new year. 🌱 There are eight spots left for this experience! Reserve your spot soon by visiting the link in our bio.

✨️THIS WEEKEND IN THE GALAXY✨️⁠

This weekend our 200hr teacher training cohort will finish up their practice immersion, and step into the next phase- teacher apprenticeship! Over the last four weekends together we've had the sweetest Yoga Sutra chats, learned all about the body and how it moves, we discovered the five energetic layers that we are made of, we faced our fears and got upside down 🙃, shared laughs and tears, and so much more. We are grateful for this group and how they show up with an open heart every weekend. We can't wait to see what this next phase brings! ❤️⁠

May your weekend be refreshing, fulfilling, and sweet!

✨🌱🌲RETREAT TO WILD RICE APRIL 2026🌲🌱✨

Hey Galaxy, we've had this in the works for a minute, and in our hearts for much longer!

Mary , Parisa and I are thrilled to announce that the three of us are hosting a weekend at Wild Rice next spring, on the shores of Lake Superior.

This retreat is one of quite a few we have planned for next year. We'll be announcing them all very shortly, but wanted to highlight that this retreat is open for booking (makes a great Christmas gift), and you can save $200 if you're one of the first three to book.

All lodgings are single occupancy, either in a Treehaus with shared communal space and private ensuite bathroom, or a private Ricepod cabin.

Wild Rice is nestled on the shores of Lake Superior, and welcomes you with immaculate hospitality, including nourishing, Ayurvedically-inspired meals.

The three of us are planning a weekend focused on gathering energy, honoring the union of divine masculine and feminine, and resetting and clearing in preparation for spring. Dynamic Vinyasa practices, restful Restorative and energy work, sound healing, sauna ritual, and lots of connection await us.

We can't wait to welcome you into this sacred retreat container - it's going to be a special one.

Head to our website and the "retreats" tab to learn more and sign up. Our DM's are open if you have any questions!

✨️THIS MONTH IN THE GALAXY✨️⁠

We're honoring the energy of gratitude and prayer in the studio this month, as we seek to end this year and begin the new one with powerful intention and the right focus on the right things.⁠

Anne Lamott, right before this part of the quote that we've got on our wall, (pictured in this carousel) says that, essentially, every prayer is either expressing "Help," "Thanks," or "Wow." And whether you think of prayer as a more structured recitation of one of these sentiments, or it's more of a conversation between you and whatever you think of as spirit, or capital-G-God, or something else, it's a way we can direct our focus and thoughts, just like any meditation, or mindful movement practice.⁠

We've got lots of fun events in studio this month, many with the intention of helping us to mark the season. We hope you can join us for one or many of these - or just be here with us under the disco ball for any of our stellar classes with our spirited teachers!⁠

Galaxy Dispatch will drop soon! Keep your eyes on your inbox ;)⁠
